—Initialization is an indispensable process for wireless sensor networks since newly deployed sensors lack a reliable infrastructure for communication. Many efforts have been mad...
This paper presents a technique called “workload decomposition” in which the CPU workload is decomposed in two parts: on-chip and off-chip. The on-chip workload signifies the ...
To increase the lifetime of the sensor networks, a recognized method is to switch off/on some sensor nodes between “sleep” and “activity” mode in order to save the energy....
While a multithreading approach provides a convenient sensor application developing environment with automatic control flow and stack managment, it is considered to have a larger d...
—Advances in microsensor and radio technology will enable small but smart sensors to be deployed for a wide range of environmental monitoring applications. The low per-node cost ...
